The Ultimate Marble Run


After a week of hard work, the marble run is finished. Not that we could have worked on it forever. It was a real joy to work with Ben on this. While working on this marble run, we had to do a lot of creative thinking, engineering and experimentation. We learned about materials, gravity, elasticity, velocity, and aesthetics. It was certainly a hit with the others in the classroom. Please leave a comment.
